Kakashi lay on the ground, his eyes unfocused and his mind completely dazed.
What just happened to me?
Chen Fan threw a punch, and then…
I was sent flying?
Just an ordinary punch?
There was no follow-up attack, no concealment whatsoever.
He simply threw a straightforward punch, and it sent me flying?
I…
Didn’t dodge?
Such a simple punch?
“Cough, cough.” Kakashi coughed twice, spitting out a mouthful of stomach acid onto the ground.
He felt as though his stomach had been turned upside down, as if everything inside was about to come back up.
“I see.
No wonder you dared to attack me.” Kakashi gritted his teeth.
“Looks like even though I’m no longer at the academy, an extraordinary newcomer has appeared there…”
“But newcomer, you haven’t graduated yet!”
“Don’t underestimate your senior!”
Kakashi stared at Chen Fan.
“I wasn’t serious just now.
Otherwise, do you really think you could have hit me?”
Kakashi did not believe he would lose!
He had already graduated six years ago, giving him six years more experience than ordinary students.
He had been on the battlefield and killed enemies…
He also possessed the pride of a genius!
How could he possibly lose to a student who had not even graduated yet?
But in the next second, he saw Chen Fan pull a kitchen knife from behind his back.
Yes, it was the same kitchen knife he normally used to cut sashimi.
Chen Fan extended his arm, slightly bent his knees, and gathered his strength.
The next moment, Chen Fan’s body shot into the air like a cannonball, leaping ten meters high.
With the kitchen knife raised above his head, he suddenly brought it crashing down.
“What kind of technique is this?” Kakashi froze for a moment as he watched Chen Fan charge toward him with astonishing speed.
The movement had an enormous range, required a long buildup, and once he was in midair, he could not possibly change direction.
The openings were enormous…
Who invented a technique like this?
It would be a miracle if it actually hit someone—
“Mountain Breaker!”
BOOM!!!
Chen Fan crashed down!
The ground around him was violently shattered!
Dust filled the air!
Broken stones flew everywhere!
Kurenai and the other students in the distance felt their footing shake.
Even the academy buildings seemed to tremble!
Everything within ten meters of Chen Fan’s landing point was blasted away.
Kakashi was among them!
“Not good!” Shisui shouted in alarm, hurriedly rushing over to catch the flying Kakashi.
Kakashi had a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth.
He was covered in dust, his entire body trembling slightly, with countless tiny wounds covering his hands and feet.
Yet he ignored all of this, keeping his eyes fixed on the center of the dust cloud as he spoke in disbelief.
“I clearly dodged it…”
He had dodged it.
He really had!
With his superb technique and exceptional reflexes, he had accurately avoided Chen Fan’s blade…
But some attacks could not be avoided simply by dodging the blade.
Chen Fan’s Mountain Breaker was one such attack!
“Kakashi…” Shisui glanced at Kakashi, his heart sinking.
Kakashi was definitely an expert.
Although he was only a Chunin, that was merely because he was too young and had not accumulated enough achievements.
His actual strength was by no means that of an ordinary Chunin!
Yet in front of that guy, he could not even fight back?
Bang!
A figure suddenly burst out from the center of the dust cloud, charging straight toward the two of them.
It was Chen Fan!
He was like an enraged bear, charging straight ahead without the slightest attempt to conceal himself.
“Chen Fan…” Shisui narrowed his eyes, but showed no fear.
He put Kakashi down and went forward alone.
Chen Fan did not care who his opponent was and immediately attacked.
His fists swept across, his legs kicked fiercely, and the sound of rushing wind filled the air.
“He’s really strong…” Shisui thought inwardly.
Because of his age, he had not yet reached the peak of the ‘Shisui of the Body Flicker’ he would display during the Third Shinobi World War.
But he had already awakened his Sharingan and had earned considerable fame within the Uchiha clan.
Yet even after activating his Sharingan, he was still constantly being forced onto the back foot by Chen Fan!
“His techniques are simple and straightforward, yet ruthless.
Every movement is fierce and powerful.”
“The most important thing is his strength!”
Shisui swore that he had never seen anyone rely solely on speed and strength to suppress him to this degree.
According to the rumors, perhaps only the Lightning Release Chakra Mode of the Night Moon clan from the Land of Lightning possessed similar abilities.
But the problem was that Chen Fan had not even used anything like that yet!
However…
Shisui did not believe he would lose!
Strength and speed were indeed extremely important factors in a ninja battle.
But Shisui’s greatest strength did not lie in either of those two areas!
The Sharingan in his eyes spun wildly, almost becoming a blur!
“Genjutsu: Narakumi—”
“ROAR!!!”
Silver-level Skill: Battle Roar!
Chen Fan suddenly let out a furious roar.
The sound was enormous, shaking the heavens and earth.
Even the air seemed to ripple!
The window glass of the academy buildings in the distance was even shattered directly by Chen Fan’s roar!
Shisui felt as though a ferocious beast were roaring right beside him.
His heart tightened, and for a moment, it was as if he had forgotten how to move.
Although he quickly recovered, the genjutsu he had been preparing to cast clearly could not continue.
And even…
A fist grew larger and larger in his vision.
Bang!
The students surrounding them…
Whether it was Kurenai or Obito, all of them stared blankly at the scene before them.
Kakashi was the strongest genius in the history of the Ninja Academy.
Shisui was one of the foremost geniuses of the Uchiha clan.
In the past, their names had always been used by the teachers to encourage ‘ordinary students’ like them to study hard.
But now…
Chen Fan was actually grabbing the two of them and pinning them to the ground, beating them up?
